Comparison of the 2- and 6- minute walk test in multiple sclerosis

Description : The 6-Minute Walk Test (6MWT) is often applied to assess walking distance in multiple sclerosis (MS) but. Yet, it can be both time consuming for the investigator and exhausting for the person with MS (pwMS). In present report, we compared the 6MWT scores of 40 ambulatory pwMS with their scores on th...

Effects of long-term resistance training and simultaneous electro-stimulation on muscle strength and functional mobility in multiple sclerosis

Description : Background: Resistance training studies in multiple sclerosis (MS) often use short intervention periods. Furthermore, training efficiency could be optimized by unilateral training and/or electrical stimulation. Objective: To examine the effect(s) of unilateral long-term (20 weeks) standardized resis...

The Learning Effect of Force Feedback Enabled Robotic Rehabilitation of the Upper Limbs in Persons with MS - a Pilot Study

Description : Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune disorder resulting in different sorts of physical dysfunctioning, such as loss of limb function, in-coordination, altered muscle-tone, etc. Within limits, these symptoms can be treated by rehabilitational measures such as strength and functional training. The...
